How do I make the app go into dark mode? I guessed "- WASTEBIN_DARK_MODE=1" which didn't work but I don't see any documentation to make it the default theme.

I ended up rebuilding the docker file and just copied over the dark theme into the light theme as a workaround. Just a little strange.

It's entirely client-side and based on your browser settings.

Hey no problem. I was just expecting to see a settings page where you can change the "theme" from dark / bright etc. Feel free to close this.
